Following up to Martin <m...@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> :

Almost up to Daily Mail standards.

First Post gives me a laugh most days.

At least it's honest.

Who owns the First Post and is there a paper version of it on sale
somewhere?

They're a bit cagey on their home page about who owns them...

Yus, I've wondered about them before.
http://observer.guardian.co.uk/business/story/0,6903,1553119,00.html
has a bit of info.

Kensington High Street might suggest an Associated connection. Or
might not, of course.

Well whoever's behind it will be getting sick of the outgoings soon.

I suspect it's not commercially motivated. There's hardly any attempt,
even, to sell ads on the site - no ratecard, no sales pitch, no phone
number IIRC.


Yeah, someone else made the point that it's probably a 'hobby paper' by
someone with too much time on their hands and a lot of friends...

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
Barbeques on fire by the chalets past the castle headland
I watched the gift shops glitter in the darkness off the Newborough gate
All these moments will be lost in time, like icecream on the beach
Time for tea.
